Presence Real Estate is a recognised leader in Australia’s property landscape, celebrated for its commitment to client relationships, data-driven decision-making, and a high-performance team culture. Leading one of Presence’s standout teams is Ryan Houston, Partner at Presence Real Estate. With a clear mission to scale operations without compromising client service, Ryan knew that a transformative CRM was critical—not only to store data but also to streamline operations, promote accountability, and sustain growth.

“For me, the secret to 10x productivity growth is mastering your CRM. It’s not just about storing client details; it’s about creating a project management system that supports every aspect of our workflow,” says Houston.

Rex CRM quickly became the solution, exceeding Ryan’s expectations and enabling his team to create a sustainable path toward expansion. “What I love about Rex is that it’s like a second brain so your mind can be empty…you have a reliable source of truth that has no leaky bucket,” Houston explains, highlighting the platform’s comprehensive capabilities.

Solution Overview: Why Rex CRM?

Selecting Rex Software’s Real Estate CRM was a strategic decision for Presence Real Estate, as the business needed a platform that could double as a project management tool, empowering each team member and aligning daily operations. “We’re managing multiple projects at once, and everyone knows exactly what needs to be done and by when,” Ryan explains. Rex’s suite of features, from automated reminders to real-time updates, provided the adaptability and accessibility his team needed.

What truly set Rex Software apart was its mobile accessibility and ability to grow with the team. Houston shares, “The best part of the mobile experience is you can use it anywhere…most of our agents use it on the go every Saturday when they’re doing open houses.” Unlike previous systems, Rex CRM offered the robust project tracking that Houston was looking for, perfectly suiting the fast-paced market demands.

The system felt intuitive and fit naturally around our workflow.” Her experience mirrored the team’s overall response, with Rex soon becoming a foundational tool in the teams operations.

Transformative Impact and Key Metrics

Time Savings and Streamlined Task Management

Rex enabled Houston’s team to save valuable time each day, transforming time-consuming tasks into efficient workflows. He estimates five hours saved per day, or 25 hours per week, thanks to Rex’s automated tracking and seamless integration with his team’s routines. “With Rex I save five hours a day, five hours times five is 25 hours a week,” he states. With features like the match profile, Houston describes how Rex continues to work even when he’s offline: “I’m asleep and I’m getting emails back… prospecting emails to nurture my customers while I’m asleep.”

Lead Management Efficiency

Rex’s Reverse Match feature and tagging system have streamlined client engagement, allowing Houston’s team to focus on nurturing hot leads and buyers likely to convert. “One of the main points of difference with our company is the reverse match feature… we go reverse match, look at hot buyers… buyers who are going to buy something in the next 30 days,” Houston explains. By automating this nurturing process, Rex acts as the intermediary between attracting and committing clients, which Houston describes as “the key to real estate.”

Productivity Enhancement and Project Management

Rex has also enhanced productivity, providing the tools to manage Houston’s growing team efficiently. The Appraisal Pipeline and Track functions eliminate redundant tasks, enabling his team to focus on revenue-generating activities. “By the Rex pipeline… I’ve got what we call a bulletproof business, which isn’t relying on a random referral… It creates a proactive approach,” Houston states.

With a clear, centralised project management system, Rex has also improved team accountability. Houston adds, “With Rex, we’re managing multiple projects at once, and everyone knows exactly what needs to be done and by when,” showcasing Rex’s role as a project management powerhouse that drives team alignment and enhances client service quality.

Houston notes that Rex’s structured workflows simplify onboarding for new team members, allowing them to integrate seamlessly and contribute quickly. “With Rex, we’re not reinventing the wheel every time we add a new member,” he says. Nathan Walsh also highlights the practical benefits, “Because Rex is mobile, I can respond to leads and manage my tasks on the go… In a competitive market, responsiveness is everything.”

Future Outlook and Long-Term Partnership

For Houston, Rex CRM is more than just software; it’s a strategic partner supporting Presence Real Estate’s growth trajectory. “We’re confident Rex will evolve with us as our needs change,” he shares, underscoring the value of Rex’s commitment to ongoing improvements.
